Camrose Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Camrose specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. They put in about 10 years in education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to traditional medical school and as a matter of fact many podiatry training programs are contained within these schools. Upon procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

Upon the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have received thorough healthcare training with an attention to on problems pertaining to the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are qualified to manage problems stretching from commonplace conditions for example, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are more puzzling for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have comprehensive surgical training which supply them the experience necessary to execute surgical treatment on those problems that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors additionally have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet experience as we walk, run or perform other activities. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait problems empowers a Podiatrist to create shoes and orthotics which can give pain relief and prevent many issues which the feet generally encounter.
